Medical Mutual of Ohio Wins Top Web Site Award
CLEVELAND, Oct. 6 /PRNewswire/ — The Web Marketing Association (WMA) has recognized Medical Mutual of Ohio’s EmployerLink.com with the Outstanding Web site Award in its 2008 WebAwards competition.
EmployerLink.com, part of the health insurer’s Web site http://www.medmutual.com/, provides Medical Mutual group customers an effective day-to-day online health plan management system.
Employers can go online, update their employees’ health coverage, pay their bills, add employees and dependents, update addresses, contact information and order ID cards. Employers can also download an employee roster and update their group information.
More than 2,400 sites from 45 countries were judged in 96 industry categories during this year’s WMA competition. Entries were judged on design, copy writing, innovation, content, interactivity, navigation and use of technology.
The WMA’s insurance industry category judges were lavish in their praise for EmployerLink. “This is a nice and clean site, easy to use and understand, a robust system and very well done,” the judges said.
“The award and the judge’s comments are gratifying, but so is all of the great feedback we are getting from our clients who use EmployerLink day-in and day-out,” said Chris Hoffman, manager of Medical Mutual’s eBusiness. “A lot of hard work and long hours on the part of our entire staff went into EmployerLink and it is nice to get this kind of recognition.”
Hoffman also cited Medical Mutual subsidiary Antares Management Solutions’ Web development team as instrumental in helping make EmployerLink an outstanding Web site. Based in Strongsville, Ohio, Antares Management Solutions offers state-of-the-art technology, administrative services and process design to businesses in the insurance and healthcare business, as well as other industries.
